are you sure that this is the syntax for swapping files? do you have
the member linked to a placeholder or another file? so you are saying,
from your example that if the CD is drive D, the file is
d:\27AB.mpg
that is in the ROOT of your CD. are you SURE that this is correct?
have you looked at the examples they provide? have you contacted
Tabulario about your problem?

what is the problem with this? how would you expect it to work? there
needs to be a DM cast member present and linked to something before
you can do anything.
